| Bogus: | Hm. I guess it depends on the type of interpreter. For example, Allen's |
| Bogus: | "Anatomy of Lisp" could be considered a good interpreter reference, and |
| Bogus: | there is a good book on the implementation of Icon. My current favorite |
| Bogus: | is a book by Samuel Kamin: |
| Bogus: | %A Samuel N. Kamin |
| Bogus: | %B Programming Languages: An Interpreter-Based Approach |
| Bogus: | %I Addison-Wesley |
| Bogus: | %C Reading, Mass |
| Bogus: | %D 1990 |
| Bogus: | This is a superb book that covers a number of interesting languages [my |
| Bogus: | favorites :-)] and for each language, an interpreter that embodies some |
| Bogus: | of its crucial conceps is implemented [using cambridge polish syntax.] lisp APL Scheme SASL CLU Smalltalk Prolog |
| Bogus: | The book is actually quite a bit more involved, and the source code is |
| Bogus: | only a part of the book, not "the book", as lesser books would have it. |
| Bogus: | I hope this is useful. The pascal code implementing these languages can |
| Bogus: | be ftp-ed from cs.uiuc.edu under uiuc/kamin.distr. |
